If you had to look at the current media landscape and pick the two guys least likely to have have come up together, nobody would look askance if you picked Desus Nice and Chris Hayes. No judgement on either, but, c’mon—one of the Bodega Boys and MSNBC’s bespectacled blonde pundit? But the Bronx is a strange and…

Here’s some potentially good news for ABC shows that don’t necessarily have the pull of a Grey’s Anatomy or a Modern Family: According to Variety, the network has decided to stop using “Live+Same Day” ratings (which means exactly what it sounds like) to judge how well a show is doing. Instead, as Fox has been doing…

Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek has been undergoing treatment for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer since earlier this year, and though it previously seemed like his cancer was “near remission,” Trebek revealed back in October that his chemotherapy treatments were making it harder and harder for him to continue hosting the show.…

It’s been four years since Joel McHale’s The Soup went off the air, but in all that time, the nation’s celebrities still have not stopped doing dumb, mockery-worthy bullshit. So, recognizing the need for someone to be on the frontlines in the war against famous people, E! has heroically decided to announce a revival…

Against all odds, the DC Universe streaming service is not only trucking along—even as HBO Max, which is owned by the same company and will have some of the same shows, is bolstering its ranks—but is handing out a new season order to its biggest, most high-profile original show. According to Deadline, DC Universe’s Tit…

Finally, after decades of everyone just accepting that Scooby-Doo is a dog that talks and likes to eat Scooby Snacks, everyone’s favorite mystery-solving mutt is getting an unnecessary Solo-like origin story. Thank god. Of course, this new movie—Scoob!—isn’t entirely a Solo-like origin story for a talking dog and his…

When you pack a film with cinematic heavy-hitters, your best hope is that the the two or so hours of screen time will adequately showcase everyone’s charms... or, you know, that it’ll at least give everyone enough gab time. Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman was a long-awaited reunion between the Goodfellas director,…

Evidently emboldened by the success of—or at least the existence of—Hulu’s Veronica Mars revival, creator Rob Thomas has started contemplating the idea of a revival of one of his other canceled-too-soon TV cult classics: Party Down. As reported by Vulture, Thomas, Jon Enbom, and Dan Etheridge (a.k.a. the Party Down cr…

Good news, schmohawks! Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Jeff Garlin just took to Instagram to announce that HBO’s premiere cringe comedy will premiere its 10th season in January. HBO hasn’t confirmed the news as of yet and Garlin didn’t provide an exact date, but, like his onscreen wife Susie Essman, we can always tell when…

The best part of the below clip is not Helena Bonham Carter just casually mentioning that a friend who is a psychic/healer connected her with the spirit of the late Princess Margaret, who Bonham Carter is playing in the third season of The Crown. The best part is HBC and Olivia Colman cracking each other up and being…

Will Forte’s been teasing a MacGruber follow-up since the original tanked at the box office in 2010. It’s since morphed, much like another Jorma Taccone-helmed comedy, into a beloved cult classic, greatly increasing our chances of seeing the former Green Beret, Navy SEAL and Army Ranger return to action. Taccone confir…

Airplanes are the worst. They’re loud, full of babies and germs, and despite being the safest way to travel, terrifying. No doubt, there’s something incredibly drab and dreadful about being stuck tens of thousands of feet up in the air with total strangers and absolutely nothing to do. Why not, thought AMC, turn that…

Just below the surface of a quiet box office weekend, four major studio releases battled for the top spot during what should have been a lively Veterans Day weekend. While many may have been looking towards the Stephen King adaptation Doctor Sleep—the sequel to The Shining—to secure the number one spot with the help…

With remake culture on the decline and reboot culture on the rise, studios are having to get more and more clever about how to best use their IP. The Banana Splits as slasher puppets? Whoa! Punky Brewster, but now she’s a divorced mother of three? Okay! Fantasy Island as a sadistic, Saw-like horror movie? It comes out…

It’s been almost 18 years since Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums first came out, a film as meticulously crafted as any of the other live-action films in his body of work. It should come as no surprise, then, that people are still finding new things to explore in its visual world in particular. So here you go: over…

Yesterday, we finally learned what Kevin Feige, a guy who makes Marvel movies, thinks about Martin Scorsese’s comments about Marvel movies putting a chokehold on the film industry. He disagrees! His comments come in the wake of defenses from industry titans like Bob Iger and Robert Downey Jr., and will now give way to…

When it comes to making stupid jokes on the internet, nothing is as reliably entertaining as taking a throwaway gag and committing to it more seriously than any reasonable person would do if they couldn’t easily attract a global audience for their efforts. The latest instance of this is a YouTuber named Joe Jenkins…

Imagine the CarMax marketing team sitting around trying to brainstorm an idea for a commercial that really drives home the point that their company will buy any automobile, no matter how terrible it is. Picture them hitting upon the idea of an old car whose speakers repeatedly play Limp Bizkit’s “Nookie,” its CD…

Back in the year 2000, as the popularity of virtual pet devices like Tamagotchi and Digimon hit their respective peaks, a bizarre video game named Seaman dropped on the Sega Dreamcast. The game gave players the opportunity to raise their own virtual pet from an egg to a full-grown Frogman, and you could even speak…

Suing a guy with an Emmy-winning late-night show whose only mission is making unholy sport of venal, duplicitous, rich old jerks is, well, something you do if you’re Murray Energy CEO Bob Murray. You remember Bob Murray—the owner of the largest privately owned coal company in the country, pal of Donald Trump, and guy…
